  • Shia (Shī‘ah Arabic: شيعة), is the second largest denomination of Muslims, after Sunni. Shi'a, though a minority in the Muslim world, constitute the majority of the populations in Iran, Azerbaijan, Bahrain and Iraq, as well as a plurality in Lebanon. Shia is divided into three branches. The largest and best known are the Twelver (اثنا عشرية iṯnāʿašariyya) which forms a majority of the population in Iran, Azerbaijan, Bahrain and Iraq. The term Shi'a often refers to Twelver Shi'a only. Other smaller branches include the Ismaili and Zaidi, who dispute the Twelver lineage of Imams and beliefs.

  • Shia (Shī‘ah Arabic: شيعة), is the second largest denomination of Muslims, after Sunni. Shi'a, though a minority in the Muslim world, constitute the majority of the populations in Iran, Azerbaijan, Bahrain and Iraq, as well as a plurality in Lebanon. The Shi'a attribute themselves to the Qur'an and teachings of the final Prophet of Islam, Muhammad, and in contrast to other Muslims, believe that his family, the Ahl al-Bayt (the People of the Household), including his descendants known as Imams, have special spiritual and political rule over the community. Unlike Sunnis, the Shi'a believe that Ali ibn Abi Talib, Muhammad's cousin and husband of his daughter, Fatimah, was the true successor to Muhammad who was appointed by God as his prophet, and thus reject the legitimacy of the first three Rashidun caliphs. The Shi'a faith is vast and inclusive of many different groups. There are various Shi'a theological beliefs, schools of jurisprudence, philosophical beliefs, and spiritual movements. Shi'a embodies a completely independent system of religious interpretation and political authority in the Muslim world. The Shi'a identity emerged soon after the death of Muhammad, and Shi'a theology was formulated in the second century and the first Shi'a governments and societies were established by the end of the third century. Shia is divided into three branches. The largest and best known are the Twelver (اثنا عشرية iṯnāʿašariyya) which forms a majority of the population in Iran, Azerbaijan, Bahrain and Iraq. The term Shi'a often refers to Twelver Shi'a only. Other smaller branches include the Ismaili and Zaidi, who dispute the Twelver lineage of Imams and beliefs.

Shia Muslims or Shiites are a type of follower of Islam, the other main division is the Sunnis, Shiites are the majority in Iran and in a part of Iraq but in the rest of the Islamic world Shiites form a minority. There are some theological differences between the two, the principal one being that Shiites believe only men who are directly descended from Mohammed can rule the faithful. While Sunnis believe Muslim leaders do not need to be descended from Mohammed, both groups expect men to lead. Men believed to be descended from Mohammed are entitled to wear a black turban which to Shiites indicates their leadership qualities.
